Introducing Inline Code Completion for Apex & LWC (JS, CSS only) - feedback requested!

[AnanyaJha]

We heard from our Pilot and Open Beta users that Inline Code Completion is a tablestakes part of the AI-enabled developer experience. With the latest release of the Einstein for Developers extension, we've introduced support for Inline Code Completion in Apex and LWC (JS & CSS only) files. Now, you can stay in the flow of your work and see your code being autocompleted as you type.

We recommend using this functionality within existing code blocks, new files, and test classes. Simply start typing and see your next few lines autocompleted! Here's a few other tips to help you get started:

Manually Trigger Completions: Even if you have automatic completions disabled, you always have the option to manually trigger a completion using our hotkeys - OPT+\. This can be helpful if you're just looking for a quick suggestion or if you don't see completions being fired when expected.

Looking to see if a completion is being generated?: Simply direct your attention to the Einstein icon in the bottom status bar. When Einstein is thinking (completion is being generated), this icon will be replaced by a progress indicator circle. Once the completion has been generated, you'll see a brief ✔️ in its place.

Enable/Disable: If you aren't quite ready to see the suggestion automatically, you can enable/disable completions for a specific file type using our quick Status Menu . Simply click on the Einstein icon in the bottom status bar to get started.

Learn more in our documentation.

Feedback Requested: This is our initial release for Inline Code Completion across Apex and specific LWC (JS & CSS only) files - HTML coming soon. We're actively looking for feedback on how to improve this experience further and any other features you may be interested in. Happy coding and looking forward to hearing from you!!
